Notts pundits

Does anyone else feel like Notts pundits can get a way with making a negative comment, whereas if a "fan" makes a comment which might be a knee jerk reaction the club, chairman or other people class it as 'abuse'. I don't get it, Mark Stallard has just made comments about 'being a professional' and whilst I agree.

It doesn't half seem like if I or another Notts fan said similar it would be labelled negative or singled out.

I feel I am very polished and aware of what happens, it's rare that my heart will rule my mind but sometimes when there's jibs being aimed at players, or questions asked about their passion - I can't help but feel people don't understand how fans see the game. As an ex professional I don't see how anyone is more entitled than a paying supporter.

i think some of the pundits can be extremely negative and bitter.

just look at john thompson when he does the radio, anyone would think he always played well and gave his all. hes so boring and negative with a very limited opinion that i wished he would f off somewhere else.

I think it's more widely accepted because people understand where they're coming from, text on the internet doesn't give the same emotion. Something can be passionate, negative but means well but be taken the wrong way.

Mark Stallard is just saying what most fans feel.

Fans shouldn't be judge for saying something similar though.

I know, my points that if the same things said then people should be more understanding. Listening to the commentary today was very depressing. It sounded like how Notts performed in the second half.

Don't get me started on John Thompson.

They need to have a translator when he speaks because it's impossible to understand what he says unless it's about Forest or negative. He seems to like to spout nonsense but I have no issues with anyone else.

Some times Charlie, Mark and John all says things which I find irritating but I accept their opinion. Their business is to make people to listen so sometimes its just to add drama but I do think they should be mindful at times.

It's Notts that keeps them in work.

Fans and pundits are entitled to their opinions, otherwise you start sounding like petty people on social media trying to flag everything up and being unable to agree or disagree.

When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.

My mum dont like Charlie Slater commentary, she cant follow what he says, and says hes certainly not Colin Slater. Once i was listening and he was referring to our players by the numbers on their shirts, rather than by name. Thats bad. 

The only way to achieve positive reaction on Notts’ games is to have a Notts fan commentating. Having said that, reading most fans comments on social media they are more scathing than the pundits.
